I have a rutland gasket to put on my XL. Are there instructions posted on the forum anywhere? 'Can't seem to find any.
Thanks!

I don't know that he has posted them here but @RRP is the fellow here that sells them.A version of the instructions are on the Naked Whiz site but I don't know if his install instructions have been modified since then - http://www.nakedwhiz.com/rutlandgasket/gasket.htm

is this the right adhesive for the gasket?

Just finished one with the PermaTex Ultra Copper. This stuff is great. It is actually gasket maker, not gasket cement so you can go with a 1/8-3/16" (3-5mm) thick layer across the ceramic edge to edge. It is thicker than the Rutland cement so it won't ooze through the gasket itself as easily. Any that squeezes out the sides can be easily trimmed off with a sharp knife after 24 hours of curing. Otherwise the NakedWhiz instructions are good, just follow the curing instructions on the PermaTex packaging before your first burn which I would recommend be a low and slow. Maybe give it an hour or three at 250 to burn off any residuals before you put any food in it.

I am actually thinking of trying to make the gasket for my second egg just out of 4-5 layers of this stuff without a fibreglas gasket. It should give a moderately stiff but rubbery seal all the way around.
Be generous:
A little ooze is fine:
Front seam - I'm proud of this!
The GOOD Stuff!!

I have just emailed NakedWhiz to see about combining my instructions about PermaTex with his otherwise excellent tutorial. We'll see what he says....

As long as this stuff stays adhered (and it certainly looks like it is going to) this is the only way I'll be doing gaskets in the future! Get the PermaTex for your Rutland gasket, anything else is a waste of time!
